Federal Prisons

[edit]

Isn't the national government of the United Kingdom compared to the government of Scotland analogous to the federal government of the United States vs. the governments of the individual states? I would suggest that you do, then, live in a country with a federal government, of sorts. Denvoran 22:11, 2 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit to Special education

[edit]

I reverted the introduction to special education. Your introduction doesn't talk about inclusion. this one does...without special education, inclusion would not be possible. I agree with the previous editor. I don't like the way you say that this "may be" emotional, physical, circumstantial or intellectual and may require special teaching approaches, equipment or care within or outwith a regular classroom or in a special school setting. Special education is for students with sinular needs or disabilities.....i still think that it's much clearer before. What is your problem?! Why do you keep reverting my edits? I am fully involved. Look at all of my edits that I've done! How can you say I'm not fully involved? My edits does not involve in America....it is completely neutral. Clearly, you are the only being bothered by it. No one has said anything about it. Can't we get an administrator to help us resolve this issue? you don't agree with me...and I don't agree with you....Special education is inclusion...that's why I merged inclusion to special education. I did discussed it on the talk page.....that I was going to merge it. Well it's not my fault that people don't like to discuss things with me. I put that up like weeks ago...and did anyone respond to me? NO. I don't have all day waiting for their responses....how do i get them to respond to me faster? (209.177.21.6 - Talk)

Thanks for your help in trying to balance the content of the special education article. I know it is especially frustrating at times, but I encourage you to tone down your remarks towards the other editor. I think completely changing the opening paragraph has had a positive effect on the discussion and hopefully the process will be easier (at least for the time being). Nposs 20:30, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. I've posted a request for help on the Wikiproject Education page. Maybe we can pick up a few experts to help out. By the way, having your username appear as a url might be a violation of WP:USER. Not sure - but you might want to take a look at it. Nposs 04:10, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:SCOWNB Participants merger with WP:SCO

[edit]

As I hope you may have seen I am attempting to tidy up WP:SCOWNB by removing old notices and the duplication that has emerged since the creation of WP:SCO. One of the latter issues is that there are lists of active Wikipedians on both locations which overlap to a significant degree. As WP:SCOWNB is ideally a place for announcements I am in process of merging the lists at WP:SCO and intend to remove the one at WP:SCOWNB when this is complete. However there are a fair number of Users not on both lists. If you do not wish to have you current WP:SCOWNB entry re-appear at WP:SCO please either let me know or edit the latter as appropriate. Thanks for your patience, and continuing support of matters relating to WikiProject Scotland. Ben MacDui (Talk) 18:15, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Special Education abuse

[edit]

Hi brideshead. I'm not sure if I have specifically pointed this out to you previous but the editor you are having constant battles with on special education and inclusive (______) is Jessica Liao. Jessica = 2 IP account, RainingmySoul, Oahc, etc. It's really tough to hold her back from making lots of edits even if you point out the clear POV she has. I don't know what action you can take, if she continues usually she'll get engaged in a 3RR case or she will post vandalism -- anyway keep an eye out there for new accounts that post exactly like the users your already dealing with -- it means she's probably created another account. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by MrMacMan (talk • contribs) 16:41, 21 April 2007 (UTC).

Anon ed on your talk page

[edit]

Hi - if what you are saying about the anon editor here is correct (and I don't have reason to doubt you), I can certainly understand your annoyance.[2] It should not be tolerated. But, if you don't mind, I'd like to suggest you express it differently. I do not mind if you remove this message. Kind regards and happy editing. :) --Merbabu 11:37, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Don't worry - I've been there, done that too. No doubt I will again one day. yes, wikipedia is permanent, but a quick and open modification of remarks goes a long way in my opinion. :) --Merbabu 11:47, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Special schools do not provide special education.

[edit]

Special schools do not provide special education. How can it provide special education if it doesn't have regular classrooms? Special education is to help the special needs student function in mainstream classes. In special schools, there are no mainstream classes. So how is special education provided? Someone should provide a reference stating that special education is provided in special schools. (209.177.21.6 - talk)

We have discussed this before. I am not going to keep having the same weak dialogue. That is your definition of special edcuation. You have no sources for it and it is not a view represented in the special needs community, in which i work. Special education is the provision of an education adapted to the additional needs of the individual in any setting. it has nothing to do with contrasting education with 'normal' classes. --Brideshead 10:05, 28 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So then provide a reference!! You keep saying you'll right...then prove it...So why didn't you just say that before instead of arguing with me? It would have been better if you clarified your point. (69.117.20.128 - talk)

I am so confused!

[edit]

"However, even the narrower usage of the term may refer to a range of school type such as a school with an innovative and flexible cirriculum aimed at bright, self-motivated students; a school for students with behavioral problems; or a school with special remedial programs.[1] "

This section is in alternative school. However, it has a reference. So should we just leave it even though on alternative education, it says that magnet schools are part of school choice?

This part confused me..how come this says that special schools and magnet schools are alternative schools? but in the alternative education article, it says that magnet schools is part of school choice? On the alternative education article, they didn't mentioned special schools but it mentioned on the top in alternative school.

so in a way, special schools and magnet schools already has a citation on the alternative school article b/c on the top it already explains it. What do you think? (Jessica - talk)

Do you find it funny

[edit]

That Jessica, who has always been Jessica has now transformed herself into this 'new' personality 'Angelina'. I find this latest turn of events hilarious. Jessica is really getting very persistent these days, Special education, Alternative school, even Special school. The topics are so related that I've been taking a rest for a while now to try and figure out if she is trying to make them all sound the same or if they are in fact all the same. I'm glad that someone is looking over her edits and I want to give you a big pat on the back for your work. Keep up the good work, MrMacMan Talk 20:07, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I mean i don't even mind that she uses IPs, its just the sheer scope of her work on the same articles. I mean she knows wikipedia policy and its rather clear of her intent, but she doesn't even push POV 'the right way' -- with correct sources -- she pushes it with putting the same info in an article over and over again. I mean if she cited the stuff she used, it wouldn't be an obvious problem, but she doesn't. She could be a great editor, she knows policy and knows stuff about the topics -- she's using her intelligence completely wrong. It's rather saddening. Jessica -- please, you know policy, why continue to use unsourced statements and copy from outside places? We all know you know better. MrMacMan Talk 20:15, 7 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bukkake

[edit]

The purpose of Bukkake is female humiliation. I don't doubt that someone has made a porn movie involving a male as a subject -- and called it bukkake. Their use is the misnomer, not the definition. My concern is the accuracy of the usage. The citation gived the definition. Male humiliation in that fashion may occur, but it would not accurately be called bukkake, because it is not a female subject. Although I personally advocate non-sexism and fair representation of sex acts regardless of the gender of the participants, in this case the act originated in Japan, a highly sexist culture at that time, and some might say still. The primary goal of the act then, and now is humiliation of a female subject. You and I may not think that is fair, but that does not really matter. Some may desire to generalize the definition to focus on the mechanics of the act, rather than socio-cultural origins and redifne it, but that is not for wikipedians to do. 75.72.34.245 (talk) 00:10, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I realise this is only a talk page, however I really hope what is being said here does not make its way onto an article page. I would really love to see reliable citations to back up your claims, I would also love to see you justify the racism towards Japan that are stated above. Sennen goroshi (talk) 12:48, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Brideshead, I am sorry for the confusion, I did realise that the initial message was not made by you, I should have clarified the fact that my comments were directed towards the anon IP editor, not yourself. Sennen goroshi (talk) 14:25, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I intend no racism toward Japan. Japan, like the U.K and U.S. has less than favorable historical facts. Also, you should note that my comments are in regard to historical acts against women, not a race. These acts (against women) occur throughout most culture's history. The act called Bukkake has Japanese origins, but I have no doubt that every other culture has a similar history. Why the Japanese act is engraved in history and not the acts of other cultures is beyond me. Perhaps because of the Japanese occupation of China and Korea? Who knows. 75.72.34.245 (talk) 16:29, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bridesmaid: Quote "The purpose of Bukkake is female humiliation". This is YOUR opinion, NOT fact. bukkake can involve a variety of participants, not simply the narrow definition you ascribe to it. I'm reverting the edit. --Brideshead (talk) 12:00, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

You are welcome to your opinion of course. But, I was not giving opinion but supporting the citation that was given. As a feminist is is also my perspective, but that isn't really relevant in the article. The act knows as "Gay Bukkake" is a recent phenomena. I am a strong supporter of GLBT/LGBT, and could care less what the genders of the people involved in any given sex act are. I am sure there is a long history of groups of people (male or female) ejecting or "splashing" ther ejaculate upon a single subject/victim for a variety of reasons, including for eroticism or humiliation or punishment -- whatever. The article is about Bukkake though, not about porn films, or "facials" or pearl necklaces or group sex or LGBT. Bukkake is of Japanese word and cultural origin. As I just said, the article is about Bukkake, not sperm ending up on someone elses face. Their probably is a much broader and more diverse history of Bukkake in Japan than I am aware of -- I am no expert on Japanese culture. One may need to be a good student of Japanese culture to really understand that. But, in a limited Wikipedia article, certainly the primary elements are 1) Muliple men ejaculate on their subject. 2) The subject is a woman. One can speculate the motivations of this cultural acts. (history suggests punishment of the woman, and ritual humiliation of the women is part of that, but there may be other contexts) The history does not, as far as I know, describe groups of men ejaculating on other men. (Although Japanese history does describe men urinating on other men as an act of domination/humiliation.) It does not describe describe groups of women ejaculating on men or women. So, when I emphasize that the Bukkake article should stick to the historical references, rather than a fairly recent trend of pornography of various kinds (regardless of the genders involved) it is not mean't to show bias against LGBT but intended to be true to the facts, regardless of what I would prefer. 75.72.34.245 (talk) 16:29, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nice theory, and the moment that theory is proven with citable and reliable facts, I will have no issues with it. As it stands there are no provable links between what may and may not have happened in Japan and what is known as Bukkake in the 21st Century. If this was about opinions then I might agree with you, Japanese Bukkake porn does seem to degrade the female on the receiving end (but then again, so does a lot of Japanese porn no matter what the particular sex act is) At the moment the only provable facts are that the word Bukkake is Japanese, Bukkake porn is available in Japan and that the act of multiple facial cumshots is generally known as Bukkake in countries other than Japan.

My personal opinion is that it is degrading, not because of the act of bukkake, but because of the Japanese porn industry. Sennen goroshi (talk) 20:45, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your GA review. In response to your question about me reviewing an article (I assume one of your GANs), its probably best if I don't. Back around about Christmas time, I got wrong for reviewing and passing for a user which had been reviewing and passing mine (although I honestly believe they met the GA criteria at the time). Because of this, I think its best if I don't review any of your GANs, albeit I am willing to review an article or two at GAN which weren't nominated by you, if you like? Qst (talk) 14:12, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I wasn't referring to a "you scratch my back" situation.

vandalism reverts

[edit]

Please be sure you check that an edit is actually vandalism before reverting it? The edits you reverted here were not vandalism, but an editor working with WP:SPOTLIGHT (which has done over 450 edits to that page since august 8, see the diff) to get an article to GA status. Can you please explain why you thought that was vandalism? If you dispute his edits, please make a comment on the talk page, but please don't call him a vandal. His edits are in good faith. Thanks.

Its not me you need to apologize to. You are right, he probably should have used an edit summary, perhaps you can make that suggestion. My advice to you however is if an editor has a blue link on their talk page and their userpage to investigate a tad more (check page history?). :) Cheers! —— nixeagle 19:29, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to make a note, this was not a page blanking, or even a section blanking. If you took the time to look at the diffs, you would have realized that he added sourced content in as well as removed content. That is what rewriting a section looks like :).

Edinburgh Zoo GAC

[edit]

I noticed the nomination and had a quick look at the article. Two issues were immediately apparent. Firstly, there is a "fact' tag and that needs to be dealt with or it will fail for sure. Secondly, after a protracted discussion an additional guideline was recently added to WP:MOS. This now states:

In articles that cover two or more taxonomic groups a consistent style of capitalisation should be used for species names. This could involve:
  • using scientific names throughout - often appropriate for articles of a specialist nature.
  • using title case for common names of species throughout (per WP:BIRDS) and lower case for non-specific names such as eagle or bilberry, which may work well for articles with a broad coverage of natural history.
  • using lower case for common names, which may work well for non-specialist articles that happen to refer to various different taxonomic groups.

The article currently breaches this as well by mixing upper and lower case. The above implies you might be better of with title case but is deliberately non-proscriptive about this due to the varied approaches in place. Good luck. Ben MacDui 19:58, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hypnagogia!

[edit]

Hello! I also stumbled across hypnagogia when browsing Wikipedia and I read that some people sometimes hear sounds sounds such as crashing or banging during this phase. I was amazed, when I heard of hypnagogia I immediately knew what it was, I experience it most nights :D When I start to drift off to sleep, first it started off as voices, random sentences or words, but they were SO CLEAR! Soon after I realized I could choose what I heard :P during hypnagogia I can hear any song I know and it sounds like, as you put it, and orchestra. :D When I read your comment I was as shocked as you were, I have told someone once or twice that I can hear amazingly clear music before I go to sleep, and they look at me like I'm crazy :P It's good to know I'm not :)

Spoon-meat

[edit]

Re your removal of "spoon-meat" from the "spoon" article, please check the following citation:

"SPOON-MEAT Noun 1. Food that is, or must be, taken with a spoon; liquid food. Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) Date "SPOON-MEAT" was first used in popular English literature: sometime before 1594. Source: Spoon-Meat. Webster's Online Dictionary - with Multilingual Thesaurus Translation."

I restored the reference, preceded by "sometimes called". Anyway, thanks for your vigilance.
